About SPSU Police

The SPSU Police Department is staffed with a dedicated group of police officers mandated
by the State of Georgia to protect the campus community. The department currently
employs 18 state certified police officers, 3 full time dispatchers, and 5 part time
employees.

Positioned between the joining law enforcement jurisdictions of the Marietta City
Police Department and the Cobb County Police Department, SPSU Police works with both
local law enforcement agencies as well as the Cobb County Sheriff's Office to promote
a safe campus community.

The SPSU Police Department's core philosophy is that "our primary success is determined
by the community's support of our efforts." It is our department's underlying desire
that we respond to and meet the expectations of the campus community whenever possible.
All members of the department are committed to providing proactive problem solving
law enforcement services to everyone learning, working, living, and visiting on the Southern
Polytechnic State University campus.
